A Summary of Benchmarking in The Development of The HR Function in India Period Development Outlook Emphasis Status

This document summarizes the development of the HR function in India from the 1920s to present. It traces how HR transitioned from a clerical, welfare role in early decades to a more professional, strategic partner focused on human values, technology, and change management today. A key turning point was the late 1980s and 1990s when HR began taking a more philosophical, international outlook and emphasizing human values over mere regulatory compliance.
